Moreover, the Hong Kong government has implemented several new strategies on waste management, energy supply, and green building, amongst others, as part of this ambitious undertaking.<\/p>\n<p>Since 2000, the region has seen an upward increase in greenhouse gas emissions, despite its concerted efforts to cut down and stabilize them since the late 1990s.<\/p>\n<p>A report from the Hong Kong Legislative Council showed that carbon emissions in the region peaked in 2014, having increased to nearly 45 million tonnes annually. Amongst the sources of greenhouse gas emissions in the region, power generation has always accounted for the highest percentage. Power generation accounted for around 65% of Hong Kong\u2019s emissions in 2017.<\/p>\n<section class=\"block block-newsletter text-center\">\n<div class=\"block-wrapper\">\n<div class=\"block__title text-left size-18 mb-10\">Get Asian Power in your inbox<\/div>\n<form id=\"form-newsletter-content\" class=\"d-flex flex-wrap\" action=\"https:\/\/asian-power.com\/newsletter\/subscribe\" name=\"form-newsletter-content\" data-drupal-form-fields=\"subscribe_email_content\">\n<div class=\"form-group position-relative mb-0\"><input id=\"subscribe_email_content\" class=\"form-control material-input\" title=\"Please enter a valid email\" name=\"subscribe_email\" pattern=\"^[^\\s@]+@[^\\s@]+\\.[^\\s@]+$\" required=\"\" type=\"email\" \/><label for=\"subscribe_email_content\">Your e-mail address<\/label><\/div>\n<div class=\"form-actions d-flex\"><input class=\"btn d-flex align-items-center justify-content-center\" type=\"submit\" value=\"Sign up\" \/><\/div>\n<\/form>\n<\/div>\n<\/section>\n<p>Coal also remains the most dominant fuel in meeting power demands, still accounting for about 25% of the fuel mix despite its declining share.<\/p>\n<p>Whilst Hong Kong\u2019s carbon intensity rate is still on a high, several efforts have been made by the government to stabilise it and \u2014 in time \u2014 lower it. In 2010, it made a pledge to cut carbon intensity by half to 60% over the next decade, compared to its 2005 level. Hong Kong pledged further to bring down carbon intensity by at least 65%, whilst making a new commitment of reducing per capita emissions by at least 37% before 2030.<\/p>\n<p>However, the region is still far from those policy targets. It only managed to have a 35% decrease in carbon intensity, and an 8% decrease in per capita emissions on actual performance between 2005 and 2017. As such, the Hong Kong government has started making more urgent policy changes, including switching the fuel mix in its electricity generation.<\/p>\n<p><strong>Increased reliance on renewables and gas\u00a0<\/strong><\/p>\n<p>One of Hong Kong\u2019s main measures to cut down carbon emissions is to increase the share of renewable energy in the mix. This includes the deployment of more offshore wind farms, solar power, waste-to-energy plants, and also increased electricity imports from mainland China.<\/p>\n<p>Data from the Legislative Council revealed that renewable energy only accounted for about 0.8% of total energy usage between 2011 and 2017.<\/p>\n<p>With this low share in mind, the government, together with local power firms, CLP Power and Hong Kong Electric, introduced the feed-in tariff scheme in 2017. This has been used as a way to encourage the private sector to invest in renewables. Under the scheme, both business and individual customers are incentivised to install solar photovoltaic or wind power systems at their premises for selling their renewable energy output from HK$3 to HK$5 per kilowatt-hour.<\/p>\n<p>Furthermore, research from the Asia Pacific Economic Cooperation reveals that the generation mix in Hong Kong is also going to change significantly in the coming years, with the government planning to raise the share of natural gas in the electricity generation to 50%. Coal-fired generation is expected to be phased out by 2035, and gas-fired generation will expand from 35% of the fuel mix in 2016 to 78% in 2050.<\/p>\n<p>Both CLP and HK Electric are actively contributing to this target.<\/p>\n<p>CLP\u2019s Black Point Power Station currently comprises a newly-built 550-megawatt (MW) unit, five 337.5-MW units, and three 312.5-MW units, with an additional 550-MW unit currently under construction. The new 550-MW unit allowed CLP to achieve its target of about 50% gas-fired electricity generation, in line with the government target, last year.<\/p>\n<p>Meanwhile, HK Electric\u2019s Lamma Power Station has recently commissioned its L10, a 380-MW gas-fired generating unit, which has increased its gas-fired electricity generation for its customers by about 50%, which is also in line with the government target. Two more 380-MW gas-fired generating units, L11 and L12, are currently under construction.<\/p>\n<p>However, the two power firms will have to complete the construction of the three new gas-fired generating units by 2024. This directive is part of a memorandum on new caps on annual emission allowances, as approved by the Legislative Council.<\/p>\n<p>This will bring the proportion of local gas generation to around 57% of the total fuel mix for power generation by 2024.<\/p>\n<p>The two power companies will also continue to acquire low-emission coal for electricity generation and maintain the performance of emission control devices to reduce emissions from coal-fired generating units.<\/p>\n<p><strong>The renewables push continues<\/strong><\/p>\n<p>The Hong Kong government is partly limited in its quest for greater renewable energy generation, by its lack of land and other development constraints. But it has managed to maintain progress over the last few years.<\/p>\n<p>In his latest Budget speech, Finance Secretary Paul Chan said that the government would set aside an extra HK$1b for more than 80 projects to install additional small-scale renewable energy systems on government buildings and installations, and a HK$150m fund to conduct energy audits and install energy-saving appliances for non-governmental organisations.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cAll these measures can help Hong Kong advance towards its carbon neutrality target, and will also create jobs,\u201d Chan said.<\/p>\n<p>Hong Kong\u2019s leaders have also shown support for the development of offshore wind farms, with Hong Kong Electric planning to install offshore wind turbines near Lamma Island with a total generating capacity of 100 MW. These are expected to produce 175 gigawatt-hours of electricity per year once online.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cAnalysis of the wind resource indicates that the site is feasible for development of an offshore wind farm,\u201d the company has told investors. \u201cThe wind monitoring campaign is still ongoing aiming at collecting additional data for optimizing the offshore wind farm design.\u201d<\/p>\n<p>CLP is also considering the feasibility of constructing an offshore wind farm in the southeastern waters of Hong Kong.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cThe project has been under consideration for some time, but recent advances in the technology of wind turbine generators and an increasingly mature supply chain in the region make it appear more feasible,\u201d it said.<\/p>\n<p>In March this year, Environment Secretary Wong Kam-sing also spoke at a webinar to discuss opportunities arising from Hong Kong&#8217;s carbon neutrality pledge to the European business community.<\/p>\n<p>Wong said, during the webinar, that the region has been exploring various solutions to combat climate change, which includes \u201cseeking more zero-carbon energy, adopting energy-saving technologies, promoting the wider use of electric vehicles, and enhancing waste reduction and recycling, such as optimising the development of advanced waste-to-energy\/resources facilities to further turn waste into valuable resources.\u201d<\/p>\n<p><strong>Moving towards the target<\/strong><\/p>\n<p>With the Hong Kong government actively aiming to reach carbon neutrality by 2050, the two power companies are proactively welcoming this undertaking.<\/p>\n<p>CLP aims to support the region in its target through promoting the development of renewable energy, helping customers improve their energy efficiency, and closely monitoring the latest technological developments in new zero-carbon energy.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cWe are seeing a clear shift from incremental improvements to an acceleration of the desire for change. This will create further opportunities given our strong existing position in the market,\u201d CLP CEO Richard Lancaster said in the company\u2019s 2020 report.<\/p>\n<p>On the other hand, HK Electric aims to engage with the government on the best way forward, including exploring the wider use of zero-carbon energy and carbon reduction technologies.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cSustainability is firmly integrated into our ethos and we have now reorganised our structure with a new Sustainability Committee to steer our efforts on this front,\u201d HK Electric Chairman Fok Kin Ning said in the company\u2019s 2020 report.<\/p>\n<p>As Hong Kong moves forward, it must continue to promote renewable energy and seek innovative solutions to its constraint in the land, both of which would be beneficial to reach their target.<\/p>\n<p>At the same time, the government must also work further with its stakeholders to overcome its issues on attaining carbon neutrality.<\/p>\n<figure class=\"Photo\">\n<div style=\"width: 1341px\" class=\"wp-caption alignnone\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"Photo__Image Photo__Image--Loaded\" src=\"https:\/\/assets.isu.pub\/document-structure\/210809040601-d7295788f54c01457447fef547d82ae4\/v1\/03734c84d4d74f4550751b67e6c86a1d.jpeg?width=720&amp;quality=85%2C50\" srcset=\"https:\/\/assets.isu.pub\/document-structure\/210809040601-d7295788f54c01457447fef547d82ae4\/v1\/03734c84d4d74f4550751b67e6c86a1d.jpeg?width=720&amp;quality=85%2C50, https:\/\/assets.isu.pub\/document-structure\/210809040601-d7295788f54c01457447fef547d82ae4\/v1\/03734c84d4d74f4550751b67e6c86a1d.jpeg?width=1440&amp;quality=85%2C50 2x, https:\/\/assets.isu.pub\/document-structure\/210809040601-d7295788f54c01457447fef547d82ae4\/v1\/03734c84d4d74f4550751b67e6c86a1d.jpeg?width=2160&amp;quality=85%2C50 3x\" alt=\"Citibank Hong Kong installs 360 solar panels at Kowloon office\" width=\"1331\" height=\"900\" \/><p class=\"wp-caption-text\">Citi Hong Kong installs 360 solar panels at Kowloon office<\/p><\/div><\/figure>\n<p class=\"Paragraph ProductParagraph__product-paragraph__GMmH0__0-0-3013 ProductParagraph__product-paragraph--lg__47dLF__0-0-3013\">Citi and CLP senior executives in front of solar panel installation<\/p>\n<h2 class=\"Heading ProductHeading__product-heading__wGhnq__0-0-3013 ProductHeading__product-heading--sm__eDejl__0-0-3013\">Citi Hong Kong installs 360 solar panels at Kowloon office<\/h2>\n<p class=\"Paragraph ProductParagraph__product-paragraph__GMmH0__0-0-3013 ProductParagraph__product-paragraph--lg__47dLF__0-0-3013\">The project is part of a hybrid electrical and thermal energy system and is expected to produce 85,337 kilowatt-hours of renewable energy per year.<\/p>\n<p class=\"Paragraph ProductParagraph__product-paragraph__GMmH0__0-0-3013 ProductParagraph__product-paragraph--lg__47dLF__0-0-3013\">Banks around the globe have become creative in making their own operations more energy efficient and renewable. The Netherland\u2019s ING Bank\u2019s new headquarters Cedar, for example, used concrete and rubble from its old building as well as banned the use of single-use plastics in its restaurants and coffee shops, amongst other sustainability-related changes. But ING has the advantage of space. The question is what about financial institutions whose base of operations are located in jam-packed industrial centers with limited land areas, such as Singapore and Hong Kong?<\/p>\n<p class=\"Paragraph ProductParagraph__product-paragraph__GMmH0__0-0-3013 ProductParagraph__product-paragraph--lg__47dLF__0-0-3013\">Citi Hong Kong\u2019s solution is to build its new renewable energy source at its roof. In March, the bank unveiled its new hybrid electrical and thermal renewable energy system, built on the rooftop of Citi Tower at Kowloon East.<\/p>\n<p class=\"Paragraph ProductParagraph__product-paragraph__GMmH0__0-0-3013 ProductParagraph__product-paragraph--lg__47dLF__0-0-3013\">The new system\u2019s focal point is its 360 solar panels, which Citi said is able to produce 85,337 kilowatthours of renewable electricity. This is reportedly equivalent to the annual energy consumption of 20 households, according to the bank.<\/p>\n<p class=\"Paragraph ProductParagraph__product-paragraph__GMmH0__0-0-3013 ProductParagraph__product-paragraph--lg__47dLF__0-0-3013\">This rooftop installation also includes a wind turbine, which generates electricity on-site for local use. Even water heating is covered by the energy produced by this new installation, with the hybrid system making use of the sun\u2019s energy to heat up water for use in the tower.<\/p>\n<p class=\"Paragraph ProductParagraph__product-paragraph__GMmH0__0-0-3013 ProductParagraph__product-paragraph--lg__47dLF__0-0-3013\">Citi Hong Kong expects that the hybrid system will overall contribute to a cost saving of approximately 4% of the building\u2019s annual power consumption.<\/p>\n<p class=\"Paragraph ProductParagraph__product-paragraph__GMmH0__0-0-3013 ProductParagraph__product-paragraph--lg__47dLF__0-0-3013\">Through this installation, the bank was also eligible to take part in the Renewable Energy Feed-in Tariff FiT) scheme introduced by local electricity provider CLP. Under this, the bank will receive FiT payments for connecting the system to CLP\u2019s electricity grid.<\/p>\n<p class=\"Paragraph ProductParagraph__product-paragraph__GMmH0__0-0-3013 ProductParagraph__product-paragraph--lg__47dLF__0-0-3013\">The Feed-in Tariff Scheme is an important initiative to promote wider use of renewable energy in Hong Kong, Angel Ng, CEO for Citi Hong Kong and Macau, said during the unveiling of the bank\u2019s tailored hybrid energy system.<\/p>\n<p class=\"Paragraph ProductParagraph__product-paragraph__GMmH0__0-0-3013 ProductParagraph__product-paragraph--lg__47dLF__0-0-3013\">\u201cWe are proud to be contributing to this effort, which is in line with our group-wide strategy to reduce the environmental footprint of our facilities around the world,\u201d Ng added.<\/p>\n<p class=\"Paragraph ProductParagraph__product-paragraph__GMmH0__0-0-3013 ProductParagraph__product-paragraph--lg__47dLF__0-0-3013\">Even before the hybrid system was fully installed and revealed to the public, Citi said that it\u2019s Hong Kong operations had already reached its goal to source 100% renewable electricity to power its operations in 2020.<\/p>\n<h3 class=\"SubHeading ProductHeading__product-heading__wGhnq__0-0-3013 ProductHeading__product-heading--xs__8Y-ve__0-0-3013\">Net zero by 2050<\/h3>\n<p class=\"Paragraph ProductParagraph__product-paragraph__GMmH0__0-0-3013 ProductParagraph__product-paragraph--lg__47dLF__0-0-3013\">The hybrid energy system is a step forward in Citigroup\u2019s commitment to achieve net zero greenhouse gas emissions by 2050, as announced by Citi CEO Jane Fraser in March. The commitment counts emissions that Citi directly produces and those contributed by the bank\u2019s specific financing and investment activities.<\/p>\n<p class=\"Paragraph ProductParagraph__product-paragraph__GMmH0__0-0-3013 ProductParagraph__product-paragraph--lg__47dLF__0-0-3013\">\u201cNet zero means rethinking our business and helping our clients rethink theirs,\u201d Ng said. \u201cWe believe that global financial institutions like Citi have the opportunity\u2014and responsibility\u2014to play a leading role in accelerating the transition to a net zero economy and deliver on the promise of the Paris Agreement.\u201d<\/p>\n<p class=\"Paragraph ProductParagraph__product-paragraph__GMmH0__0-0-3013 ProductParagraph__product-paragraph--lg__47dLF__0-0-3013\">Ng added that the bank\u2019s track record in sustainable finance places it in a good position to support clients with new ways of creating financial value that have environmental and also social benefits.<\/p>\n<p class=\"Paragraph ProductParagraph__product-paragraph__GMmH0__0-0-3013 ProductParagraph__product-paragraph--lg__47dLF__0-0-3013\">From 2014 to 2019, Citigroup financed and facilitated US$164b in lowcarbon solutions and in 2020 pledged an additional US$250b in environmental transactions by 2025.<\/p>\n<h3 class=\"SubHeading ProductHeading__product-heading__wGhnq__0-0-3013 ProductHeading__product-heading--xs__8Y-ve__0-0-3013\">Net zero means rethinking our business and helping our clients rethink theirs<\/h3>\n<\/div>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Where is Hong Kong now in its carbon neutrality target?
